Questions
How big is the Nixie controller PCB?
It measures 148.9 × 56 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Nixie controller use?
91 parts, built around the MAX1771CPA+, TPIC6B595DW, DS3231MZ/V+ and L7805. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Nixie controller KiCad files?
From the piotrpodlaski/NixieClockPCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is nixie_controller/nixie_controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic nixie_adapter_pp/nixie_adapter_pp.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Nixie controller design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask piotrpodlaski before reusing the design.
